Me: Ok, here is chapter 4! This chapter will focus mostly on OldRivalShipping. Disclaimer please!
Misty: FireRed-Rose does not own Pokémon or the characters. She does own Lolly though.
Me: Thanks Misty. Thanks to Fprmr1 for reviewing. Now, on with the story!
The third day of summer
OldRivalShipping
Dawn's POV
It was already 10:30 pm. Everything was normal. I was making Poffins, Lolly was grooming her Pokémon, May and Drew were bickering like a married couple, Ash was eating, Misty was hitting him with her mallet, Max was reading books, Paul was training his Pokémon, Red and Yellow were watching TV and Gary was flirting with Leaf. Wait. Gary. Flirting. With. Leaf. That was not normal! Maybe Team Rocket did something to his brain yesterday. Yes. That's it.
I turned my attention back to the Poffins. After a minute, they were ready.
"Piplup, Buneary, Pachirisu, Mamoswine, Togekiss and Typhlosion, come here, Poffins!" I called my Pokémon.
My Pokémon ran to me. I gave each one of them two Poffins. Well, I gave Mamoswine ten. That Pokémon has got a huge appetite!
When my Pokémon finished eating, I returned Mamoswine, Togekiss, Pachirisu, Buneary and Typhlosion to their Pokéballs.
I decided to watch TV with Red and Yellow for a while so I sat on the couch next to Piplup.
Leaf's POV
Gary was annoying me all morning. I tried to ignore him by training with my Pokémon but no such luck. He was asking me stuff that he was supposed to know, since we knew each other since we were two years old, like 'when is your birthday', 'what is your favorite Pokémon', 'what was your first Pokémon' and 'what are your hobbies'. If I didn't know him better I'd say he was flirting with me.
"So, Leaf, what are you going to do later?" Gary asked me.
"Anything that doesn't involve you." I answered.
"Aw, come on Leaf. We are friends since we were two years old! Let's do something together!" Gary said.
"I think I'm going to watch TV with Yellow, Dawn and Red. Come on Bulbasaur." I said.
I sat on the couch next to Dawn and Piplup, with my Bulbasaur on my lap. Gary came inside and sat next to me.
"What's up guys? The room, suddenly, became really crowded." Red said. It was obvious he wanted to spend some time alone with Yellow.
"Okay lover boy, Leaf and I are outta here!" Dawn said.
Dawn and I walked out of the room. Bulbasaur and Piplup were following us.
"There's still Gary in here and what did you mean by lover boy?" Red yelled at Dawn's back.
Dawn and I giggled and ignored Red's comment.
"She meant that it's pretty obvious that you want to spend some time alone with Yellow." Gary said and followed us, leaving behind a blushing Red and a giggling Yellow.
Normal POV
As soon as we went outside, Dawn grabbed Gary and dragged him to a corner. Leaf looked at their retreating backs, feeling jealous that Dawn was going to be alone with Gary and not her.
"Gary, stop flirting with Leaf." Dawn said.
Gary blushed. "I'm not flirting with Leaf!" He yelled.
Thankfully, for him, Leaf was far away and didn't hear anything, but on the other hand, every other boy and girl (except Red and Yellow) was in hearing range and heard Gary yelling.
"Aw, little Gary's in love with Leaf!" Paul mocked.
"I'm NOT!" Gary yelled.
"Sure, you aren't." May and Drew said simultaneously.
"Stop saying what I'm saying!" May and Drew yelled in sync.
"I'm not saying what you're saying!" May and Drew said in sync, again.
"Ah, you're so cute together." Lolly sighed.
"No we're not!" May and Drew said together.
"Whatever you say." Misty said and rolled her eyes.
Gary's POV
Phew, Drew and May practically saved me. If it wasn't for them, I'd be questioned by Dawn about Leaf. Thank you Drew and May.
I tiptoed away as carefully as I could but Max grabbed my shirt and said.
"Guys, stop bickering, Gary is going to escape!"
"Escape to where?" Ash asked.
"To anywhere but here." I answered.
"Aw, come on Gary, we're not that bad, are we?" Dawn asked.
"Yes you are." I answered.
"Why?" Ash said.
"Because you won't let me get away!" I exclaimed.
"And why do you want to get away, to go flirt with Leaf?" Misty asked.
"I'm not flirting with that pesky girl, why would I?"
"Because you like her." Drew and May said in sync.
"No I don't!"
"Yeah, sure, whatever you say." Lolly said.
"Don't you believe me?"
"No." Paul answered.
"Why?"
"Because you were flirting with her this morning." Max answered.
"No I wasn't!"
"Sure." Drew and May said in sync.
"You two are starting to annoy me. I'm outta here! " I said.
Before anyone could stop me, I dashed in the house and bumped on Leaf.
Unfortunately, she fell backwards and I fell on top of her.
"Get off me!" She shouted.
"Sorry, I tripped." I mumbled and got up.
Leaf's POV
I got up after Gary, walked to the living room, kicked Red out of it and invited the girls inside to chat.
"So, Leaf, who do you like?" Dawn asked.
"N-no one." I stuttered.
"Yeah, that's why you're stuttering." Misty said.
"Do you want me to shout to the world that you like Ash, May likes Drew and Dawn likes Paul?" I retorted.
"What are you going to say about me and Yellow?" Lolly asked.
"Uh… that you're cheating on Red and Max?" I said.
"They wouldn't believe you." Yellow said.
"How are you so sure?" I asked.
"I am." Yellow answered.
"Want to play truth or dare?" May asked.
"Sure!" Dawn, Yellow and Lolly said.
"What about you, Leaf?" Dawn questioned me.
"Sure, but let's invite the boys to play with us." I said.
"I'll go get them!" May volunteered. She got up and went outside. She came after a few seconds dragging Drew, her Blaziken dragging both Gary and Paul. Ash, Max and Red came willingly inside.
Normal POV
"Thanks Blaziken! Return." May said to her Blaziken and returned it to its Pokéball.
Yellow was lying down on the couch because of her back injury, so that left two more couches, a loveseat and two armchairs. Lolly sat on a corner of Yellow's couch, Leaf, Dawn and Misty sat on one of the couches, Ash, Gary and Paul sat on the other, Max sat on one of the armchairs and Red on the other. May and Drew were left with the loveseat.
"I'm not sitting with him/her!" They both yelled simultaneously.
"Yes, you are." Leaf said and commanded her Bulbasaur to use Wine Whip on them and throw them on the loveseat.
Drew's POV
I saw Bulbasaur's vines coming towards me and commanded Roserade to use Petal Dance to stop them but she ignored me. I felt the vines carry me and throw me on the couch. A second later, a body landed on top of me. It was May! I felt the heat rising up to my cheeks but controlled it.
"Get off me!" I growled. I winced at how unfriendly my voice sounded.
May hurried, got off me and sat on the other edge of the loveseat. I had this side to me, thankfully.
Normal POV
Dawn was whispering something that sounded like 'ah, they look so cute together' in Leaf's ear and Leaf was nodding, Misty was smirking at May and Drew evilly, Yellow and Lolly were sighing, Gary and Paul were snickering, Red was pretending not to pay any attention at his surroundings, Max was glaring at Drew and Ash was eating a burger. Drew and May were shifting uncomfortably at their seats.
"Let's begin the game!" Lolly said.
Everybody nodded and the game started.
"Who will go first?" Red asked.
"May, since she is the one that invited us to her house." Dawn answered.
"Okay… Um… Dawn! Truth or Dare?" May asked.
"Truth." Dawn answered, comfortable.
"Do you like Kenny?" May asked.
"As a friend but nothing more." Dawn answered, honestly.
"Misty! Truth or Dare?" Dawn asked.
"Dare!" Misty answered. She was always the daring type.
"I dare you to… wear a mini-dress for the rest of the night!" Dawn finished, happy with her dare.
"Hand over the dress." Misty muttered and stretched out her hand. Dawn handed her a pink very short dress. Poor Misty…
Misty disappeared into the bathroom and changed to Dawn's pink, short dress. She came out after a while, blushing. Ash's mouth shot open in shock but he closed it quickly. Misty sat on the couch and crossed her legs.
"Drew, Truth or Dare?" Misty asked.
"Truth." Drew answered.
"Why do you give the roses to May?" Misty asked.
"Because she is a good Coordinator." Drew muttered.
Misty eyed him suspiciously but accepted the answer.
"Paul, Truth or Dare?" Drew asked.
"Dare." Paul grumbled.
"I dare you to wear one of Dawn's short skirts for the night." Drew said.
"Do I have to?" Paul asked.
"Yep. Dawn, hand over a skirt." Drew said.
Dawn gave Paul a, short, checkered hot pink and black skirt.
"At least can you give me something that is not pink?" Paul asked.
"Nope." Dawn answered.
Paul went into the bathroom and changed. He came out after ten minutes wearing the skirt. Dawn, May, Misty, Leaf and Lolly started giggling when he came inside. Yellow, Red, Gary, Drew and Max were grinning like idiots, trying not to laugh while Ash was laughing like a maniac.
Paul quickly sat on the couch next to Gary.
"Gary, Truth or Dare?" Paul asked.
"Uh… Truth!" Gary answered.
Paul looked at the other boys. The plan was starting now.
Max's POV
"Gary, tell us the real reason why you stopped flirting with girls." Paul said.
"Because I like a girl." Gary muttered.
Drew smirked. Phase one of the plan is complete.
"Care to tell us who that girl is?" Drew asked.
"N-no!" Gary stuttered.
"Come on! It's not like she's in here, right?" I questioned.
"Uh…" Yes! We succeeded. Gary was speechless.
"Aw, come on, you can tell us! We're your friends!" Red said.
"Uh… I got to go to the toilet!" Gary said and got up but Ash caught him.
Normal POV
"Tell us, or else we will make you wear one of Dawn's dresses and make up all day tomorrow and tomorrow we're going to the mall and you're coming with us." Drew said.
"Okay! I like Leaf." He yelled.
The other boys (except Paul) high-fived each other yelling "Success!"
Leaf was staring at Gary while the other girls were sighing and muttering 'how cute'.
Leaf's POV
I quickly got out of my trance, grabbed Gary's hand and led him outside.
"Did you mean what you said?" I asked him.
He nodded.
"Well, I want you to know that I feel the same way." I whispered in his ear.
He smiled and pulled me in a brief kiss. I smiled too.
We walked, hand-in-hand back to the room. Suddenly, we didn't care about how much we would be teased by most of the boys and girls.
The game continued till midnight. So far, Red and Yellow had kissed, Max and Lolly had switched clothes for the night, Gary and I had also kissed, Ash was forced not to eat anything, May was forced to sit on Drew's lap for three hours and Dawn had to wear Paul's clothes.
When the game finished everybody changed to his or her pajamas and fell asleep.
Me: So, this was the OldRivalShipping chapter!
Gary: Review please. I didn't do all these stuff for nothing!
Me: You weren't forced to do these stuff, Gary.
